you dont. thats pointless. Youre skin color is beautiful. No one is ever happy with themselves. people need to accept who they are before anyone else can accpet them. no one would like you better just cause you are white. and if they do, then they are not the kind of people you want in your life to begin with. Just be happy you are healthy and living and stop trying to change something that isnt natural to do

I work at a school and every now and then we will have an india child. I think your skin color that you all have is beautiful.
I am white and white people has completion problems. I am sure that you are a beautiful girl.
Don't even try to lighten your skin. Look what happen to Micheal Jackson. Is is considered a freak. I hate my nose. hehe. I love the clothes you all wear. Get involved with you friends, in time things will get better.

You don't! Why would you do that?Every,every picture I see of India's peoples skin is BEAUTIFUL! You need to change your thinking not your skin! I'm African American.While I think ,EVERY culture is beautiful.I love the skin I'm in. I can't change how others look at me!
Why do many white people lay out in the sun to become darker.
Read the cultural history of sun tanning

You have what many people pay year round to get.Darker skin.
Hold your head up high! You are beautiful! But,no one can make you see that every day of every year ,better than you!
If you lighten your skin,what will you do next wear blue contacts,dye your hair blonde.Inside your heart and soul will always be an Indian woman!
I love how you look sister! And I don't have to see your face to know how truly beautiful you ALREADY are!
God Bless!

You don't really want to chemically lighten your skin color, do you? Why? It can mess up your skin terribly! You are what you are and skin color should not have any effect on your self-esteem. Many people are attracted to darker skinned people. Learn to love yourself for who you are, don't try to change your skin color and don't try to be something you aren't! Be proud of your heritage and don't worry about what you think other people may think!! If other people are that narrow-minded, then they are the ones who need help! Why don't you try reading some books on self-esteem to reinforce a more positive note about yourself. Be happy being YOU and don't try to change your skin!! Good luck to you! :)

Lightening your skin color won't help. Your problem is psychological. Study successful Indian women so you can relate the whole body not just the skin which to many people is more beautiful than white. You do not have to tan yourself and get cancer to have the skin you have which many white women work so hard to have.

Oh, Honey!
Let me tell you something: I know some positively beautiful people from India. There is nothing at all wrong with your skin color. So rejoice in it! Use bright mascaras to contrast with your skin and bring out the glow. Use good moisturizers to get your skin in the best shape it can be in. I think you'll like what you see.
And if a guy has decided he doesn't like your skin, then you don't need him.
Good luck!

I have a Dr. from India and I think he is more attractive because he is. If a guy doesn't look at you because you are not white, you don't need him anyway. Always be comfortable with yourself. Be confident and self assured. I doesn't matter what color you are, it matters who you are.

Don't lighten your skin. Your self esteem would not improve even if you could lighten it. That's an inner issue not an outer one. Work on building yourself up and you'll come to love the way you look.

Look at Aishwarya rai shes been voted most beautiful woman in the the world before and ..... shes indian.
It not what color your skin, just embrace it. This will give you confidence and that to guys is sexy, no one will find you attractive if you walk around hanging your head in shame.

Self esteem comes from inside, respect who you are as a person, as good and attractive as any other human being. Who says as a fact that white skin is more attractive - it is only someones opinion, dont buy into it - cultivate inner beauty.
